WINTER HARD-BALL TRAINING

  • Sunday 24th November

The cost of the course is £6 per session or £15 for all three sessions and will be run by myself and a Sussex CC coach. All hard ball equipment (pads etc.) will be supplied however if you have your own equipment feel free to bring it. The club strongly recommends that all participants wear batting briefs/shorts and bring with them an abdominal guard (box).

END OF SEASON

Next Wednesday (7th) at 3pm the club will be holding some fun intra-club games to celebrate the end of our successful first season at Catsfield Playing Fields. All players that have represented the club both in training and at games along with their parents are welcome (if there are enough parents I will be willing to consider a players v parents game of sorts.) For parents that are unable to stay, I would envisage concluding around 5pm.

I need to take a few photos on the day for a number of reasons but if all players could wear their Chance to Shine training shirts they have been given that would be a great help. I will also need to get some player and parent feedback throughout the afternoon to be used in a 'press release' and so that I can start to prepare for next season and winter training.

I will be using the session to see what I need to do and how long it is going to take to host our home games next season, if any parents wish to do the same in terms of preparing some food/refreshments for after the games then I will be both more than happy and grateful.

There will be no charge for this event however I have decided to run the Battel Bonfire Boyes 10k in September this year to raise funds for some much need hardball equipment for the colts so, feel free to donate to this good cause instead.

See you on Wednesday.
